I thought I would introduce myself, my names David and I hail from Northern Ireland. I have been a fan of the Delorean since I seen the first transporters leaving the factory, as my parents lived virtually on the front doorstep of the factory. I can recall my mum calling me every time a lorry was about to pass the house for the docks (an easy way to entertain a toddler), we could see them leaving via the access road off The Cutts at Derriaghy before they passed my parents house on the main road to Belfast. I also remember my mum telling me they were not making the cars any more, I think there might have been a few tears shed.
I always dreamed of owning a Delorean and I finally did it last weekend when I bought VIN1780. The car is currently at my mechanics initially he thought the engine had seized, but after putting some kind of lube in he managed to turn the crank manually. I have new tyres on order (proper size), news gas struts, trailing arm bolts and a new door seal no doubt that's just the start of it
